"And while it is true that private equity firms construct their bids with desired returns in mind, it does not follow that a private equity firm's final offer at the end of a robust and competitive auction cannot ultimately be the best indicator of fair value for the company," Slights wrote in a 109-page opinion.

Whether the setting is the Bronx in the 1980s, South Central Los Angeles in the 1990s, Oakland or any number of midsize cities today, one finds the same broken gold chains, self-published books and shabby mortuaries; the same candle vigils and Russian roulette; the same petty slights, retaliation, snitching taboos and grisly walk-up executions.

Squint, and Red Sox fans start to look a lot like baby boomers, gifted, over the past two decades, with as glorious and bountiful a harvest as any generation has ever been but unable to overcome past slights enough to concede an inch to time, history or any sort of equality for anyone who is not them.

The two stars would continue to tangle in the press and in West's lyrics, and though Swift struck back with her assertive 2017 album "Reputation," which featured a lead single that many interpreted as a response to West's slights, "Miss Americana" catches Swift on the day that record was snubbed and missed out on major Grammy nominations.

Advisers say Donald TrumpDonald John TrumpPossible GOP challenger says Trump doesn't doesn't deserve reelection, but would vote for him over Democrat O'Rourke: Trump driving global, U.S. economy into recession Manchin: Trump has 'golden opportunity' on gun reforms MORE has lately been sullen and erratic in private and easily rattled by perceived slights, according to The New York Times.

The perceived slights toward Trump apparently didn't end there, as the Guardian's Hadley Freeman explained: On the second day, she wore a brooch given to her by Canada, a country with which Trump is less than pleased at the moment (also, it was in the shape of a snowflake, a classic Trump term for people who disagree with him).

In the time that Dolan has owned the team, it's been clear that the Liberty have been an afterthought - from small, immeasurable slights like a seeming disinterest in allocating marketing and advertising dollars, to the slap in the face of appointing Isaiah Thomas, the former Knicks coach who was found guilty of sexual harassment, as the president of the Liberty in 2015.

Editorial What is unnerving in President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's march to authoritarianism is how dismally familiar it is: the coup that becomes a pretext for a massive roundup of real and imagined enemies; the claims to be the one man who can withstand the onslaught of foreign foes; the invocation of purported historical slights; the silencing of the news media.

That seems to be the idea, although it takes an attentive, patient viewer to fit together the shards that Ms. Tan scatters throughout, and to see how the flashbacks to Thana's childhood, with its pleasures and dark secrets, fit in with his more recent slights and grievances, including the impending demolition of one of his buildings, a glass-tower monument to consumerism.

These types are the ones who spew the most vile and bigoted rhetoric 24/7 on social media and traditional media comment sections about racial and religious minorites, but when said minorites speak out or fight back rhetorically, they retreat to the "Go Back to Africa, Asia, or the Middle East" slights that are signature phrases of the unenlightened and deplorable.

For a quarter at Madison Square Garden, Anthony seemed to slough off the many indignities of this season — the slights from the team's president, Phil Jackson; the creeping incursion of Kristaps Porzingis as the Knicks' top star; the news, announced just before the game, that for the first time in eight years Anthony would not be an All-Star Game starter.

Experts say that Trump's decision to withdraw from the Iran nuclear deal in May — despite the fact that Iran was complying with the deal — likely made North Korea far more uneasy about striking a deal with the US. Trump seems to think that changing his mind and theatrical gestures of anger in response to small slights makes him look tough — but instead, he looks petty and unreliable.

"It is frustration and disappointment that a lot of the indications of what is coming to light were out before the election but it didn't get the focus and the attention that it deserved," Jesse Ferguson, a former Clinton spokesman said, arguing that the content in leaked emails - controversies, perceived slights and other salacious details -- were covered more closely than where the information was coming from.

Isaac Lee, president of news and digital for Univision, the nation's leading Spanish-language network, says a series of slights, from Trump's negative characterization of immigrants and repeated pledge to build a wall on the border to his recent attacks on a federal judge of Mexican descent, have made him an unacceptable choice for voters who will play a key role in several battleground states this fall.

Even as the nativist far right publicly broke with Trump over his missile barrage of Bashar al-Assad's regime in Syria, his gutting of the federal budget's assistance to Appalachia, and a host of other smaller slights, they used their newfound notoriety to stage high-profile rallies—relatively speaking, of course, since not many people showed up on average—designed for maximum public impact.

If Curry is looking for slights to motivate him, he may find one if he is not the first N.B.A. player unanimously named M.V.P. (Shaquille O'Neal and James have come the closest, each falling one vote short.) Chris Webber, a five-time All-Star who will be part of TNT's broadcast team, said a few M.V.P. voters may choose someone other than Curry simply to be contrarian.

In fact, close to 2100 percent of those that kill four or more people unfold just as this one did in Ravenel on May 217—not gangland feuds or terrorist attacks but intimate executions carried out in quiet homes by ordinary men who murder the women and children closest to them over slights as insignificant as a new phone number or a custody hearing.

Other popular choices are "Citizen: An American Lyric," a book of poetry by Claudia Rankine, which recounts the slights and verbal aggressions that make up the daily experience of racism; "Evicted: Poverty and Profit in the American City," by Matthew Desmond, a sociologist who embedded with poor renters in Milwaukee; and "Becoming Nicole: The Transformation of an American Family," by Amy Ellis Nutt, about a transgender teenager.

Appreciations Those of us who worked even briefly with the journalist Gwen Ifill, who died on Monday at the age of 61, can attest to her deeply held sense of fairness, the preternatural grace she showed under pressure and the way she kept her composure in the face of both personal and professional slights that would have left many of us breathing fire and brimstone.

Where most parody Twitter accounts are knuckle-chewingly bad, this one has undoubtedly already appeared all over your timeline because it's so easy to imagine Kylo Ren sulking through his early life, rolling his eyes at his dad's jokes, complaining about perceived slights, affecting the edgy tone of the dark side, and trying to work out why the world doesn't think he's as cool as he thinks he is.

At its highest in 403 years, that turnout may muffle talk of a "democratic deficit" undermining the legitimacy of the EU. As the Union faces unprecedented slights from the United States under President Donald Trump, hostility from Russia under President Vladimir Putin and anxiety over the rising trading power of China, a revival of its citizens' interest, however muted, and a containment of its critics, is welcome for supporters of the bloc.

Headland, who created the series with Amy Poehler and the actress Natasha Lyonne (who also stars in the show and co-wrote several episodes), got her start as a playwright in the mid-2000s, when her main preoccupation was misbehavior—the spiky words and blithe, callous actions that lead people to hurt others and resent themselves, the little, daily snips and slights that we stay up at night replaying in our heads, wondering what we might have done differently.

The excellent first volume of Charles Moore's official life of Britain's only woman prime minister made the question of Thatcher's gender the animating force behind the story: how this grocer's daughter from an unfashionable part of England overcame the prejudice of the times and her party to become Conservative leader, and then battled the skepticism and constant slights that implied that as a woman, not least a lower-middle-class one, she wasn't up to the job of running the country.

Vox's Todd VanDerWerff places blames for slights like the one about Simone Biles's parents and the odd focus on women athletes' husbands on NBC's "outdated way of thinking about the games" as entertainment, with preselected narratives: Without any competition, the network continues to fall back on the same tired storylines about men who are gritty competitors and women who manage to fill some traditionally feminine role in addition to being athletes (when it's not suggesting their husbands are responsible for their success, that is).

This meeting, however, is likely to be more fraught than any others given Trump's recent slights to the Japanese leader: Trump initially omitted Japan from the list of countries temporarily exempted from new trade tariffs, and didn't alert Tokyo ahead of his decision to meet with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. While Abe's latest visit was prompted by the possibility of Trump meeting Kim, the leaders have at least two other important issues to discuss: trade and China's growing military activity around the region.

The 71-year-old president's pathological inability to let go of slights; his strongman reflex to be the aggressor and bite back like a cornered animal, without regard for societal norms; his lack of self-awareness about the power he commands and the proportionality of his responses; his grotesque hunger for flattery and taste for Tony Soprano tactics; his Pravda partnership with David Pecker, the head honcho at The National Enquirer, which has been giving Trump the Il Duce treatment while sliming his political opponents, the "Morning Joe" anchors and Megyn Kelly — these are all matters that should alarm men and women equally.

These are some of the incidents Kurlantzick documented: Using his own planes to block a visiting Japanese prime minister in Bangkok in a fit of pique Throwing a lavish birthday party for his pet poodle Foo Foo (who he famously appointed to the rank of Air Chief Marshall), at which his wife appeared topless, as shown in a leaked video Storming home early from a visit to Japan after a series of minor protocol slights by Thailand's most important investor Marriage and children The new king is well known (outside of Thailand, at least) as a womanizer, and his marriage record seems to back that up.
